Executive Summary
Summary
Acme Ice Cream LLC will offer customers in
downtown Wilmington a variety of artisan ice
creams, frozen yogurt, and drinks. It is an ice
cream store designed to stand out as a healthy
lifestyle brand with homemade ice cream using
locally sourced ingredients, as well as
establishing itself as a comfortable environment
for people to relax and enjoy. It plans on creating
a homey yet technologically-advanced space with
the option of using tablet menus at each table to
place orders as well as boasting exceptional
customer service.
The purpose of this business plan is to raise $200,000 for the development and expansion of a ice
cream store (Acme Ice Cream LLC) in downtown Wilmington, DE. The investment will help the
company build out its flagship retail location in downtown Wilmington and provide working capital
for the first six months of operations.
Management Team
Acme Ice Cream will be owned by two partners, John Doe and Jane Doe. John has a strong
background in marketing and the food industry, with previous experience working at Ben & Jerry's
and Proctor and Gamble. Jane Doe brings 10 years of managerial expertise after working in
multinational hospitality firms, including Marriott International and Starwood's Group Ltd.
In addition to the two owners, Acme Ice Cream will have an advisory board consisting of two
members, Peter Smith and Jessica Peters. Peter Smith has over 30 years of experience in the fast
food industry and Jessica Peters is the current CFO of West Technologies Limited with more than 20
years experience in finance and accounting.

ACME ICE CREAM LLC 2
Customers
Acme Ice Cream will target three customer segments: young professionals, families, and teenagers.
The location of the store in downtown area of Wilmington, DE is a prime spot for both working
professionals looking for a treat, as well as local residents. The company will utilize storefront
promotions and Internet marketing to get the word out, with an emphasis on social media
marketing to encourage positive word of mouth.
Financial Forecast
The company expects to generate at least $700,000 in annual sales by the end of the first year of
operations with a gross margin of 23%. The company will incur higher expenses for startup costs
for the first year but the company expects to turn a profit within the second year of operation with
steadily increasing sales and growing customer base.

the first six months of operations. The company has an aggressive expansion plan to acquire
significant market share and grow its product offering beyond retail operations.

ACME ICE CREAM LLC 4
Acme Ice Cream LLC is a single member limited liability company incorporated in the state of
Delaware. It was incorporated Jan 1, 2013 and is currently located at 312 Blue Valley Street,
Wilmington, DE. The planned store location is situated at 10 Main Street, Wilmington, Delaware.
The company was originally conceived in March 2012 when founder and CEO, John Doe, came up
with the idea that a locally sourced, artisanal ice cream shop was sorely lacking in downtown
Wilmington, DE.
Management Team
John Doe, Founder and CEO
Prior to founding Acme Ice Cream LLC, John Doe was
Regional Manager of Ben & Jerry's Northeast Region,
where he was responsible for managing all aspects of
operations for over 50 retail locations. Prior to Ben &
Jerry's, John Doe held multiple positions at Proctor and
Gamble, spanning supply chain management and
sourcing/fulfillment. John Doe holds a B.S. in Marketing
from George Washington University.

Required Funds
John Doe is seeking to raise $200,000 from an investor. The investor will receive a 20% equity
share in Acme Ice Cream LLC, with John Doe retaining 80% ownership. The investor shall not have
any active role in the day-to-day operations of the company, or have the power to bind the company
with any contract, agreement, promise or undertaking. Further details of the proposal will be
provided in the company’s operating agreement.
The investment will be required to meet the company’s first milestone, which is reaching positive
cash flow, by month 6 of operations. John Doe will also invest $50,000 during this investment
round.
The company is projected to generate $1.7 million in revenue by end of year 3, with a profit margin
of 35%. The company valuation by year 3 of operations, using comparable businesses in the local
region, is approximately $1.5M.

ACME ICE CREAM LLC 6
Exit Strategy
Distributions made to members of the company will be made annually, within 75 days of the end of
the year. Each member will receive their share on any profits over and above the following two
months’ operating expenses (Jan and Feb). This amount will be required to maintain operations and
generate revenues necessary to keep the company solvent. In the event of a loss, no profits will be
paid.
Assuming the venture is able to meet its financial projections, Mr. Doe intends to further expand to
more retail locations across the downtown Wilmington area. The eventual exit strategy would
entail packaging the entire chain of ice cream stores and selling them to a third party. There are
several holding companies in the region that have a history of acquiring success franchises with
revenue exceeding $3.5M. Based on our analysis, similarly typed businesses in this geographic area
could secure a valuation up to 3X EBITA.
Mission Statement
To provide the region’s most innovative ice creamery that emphasizes customer service, social
responsibility, and extremely high quality product as ingredients to its success.
Company History
John Doe first conceptualized Acme Ice Cream LLC in March 2012 when he realized there were no
local ice cream shops in downtown Wilmington that sourced from local vendors and provided a fun
and friendly atmosphere. Using his personal residence's kitchen as the first test kitchen, John Doe
started to tinker with recipes for the company's line of hand-made ice cream. Within a couple of
months Mr. Doe was able to complete his line of artisanal ice cream, including the signature flavor:
Madagascar dark chocolate. He shortly thereafter incorporated as Acme Ice Cream LLC and
recruited his wife, Jane Doe, to help him with the business.

ACME ICE CREAM LLC 7
The company plans to rent a retail storefront in downtown Wilmington, DE located on 10 Main
Street. The facility is 1,200 square feet and is zoned for commercial use. It possesses the following:
The company is able to secure the location with extremely favorable terms with a three year lease
with no price increases guaranteed for the duration of the lease.
CONFIDENTIAL - This document is strictly confidential and the information and ideas shared within the business plan are not to

ACME ICE CREAM LLC 8
Specialty ingredients, such as Madagascar dark chocolate, are all certified organic as well. All
products are available by the scoop and can be purchased in a cup or cone. There are also plans to
produce seasonal products, such as pumpkin flavored ice cream during autumn.
Drinks would be an additional product offered depending on the season. Hot drinks will be offered
during the winter season, while during the summer ice cream shakes will be part of the treats
offered.
Competitors
The company's primary competitor is Ben & Jerry's, who has four franchises and one company-
owned store in the downtown Wilmington, DE area. They are the only competitor that provides
premium-priced ice cream in the area, and so dominate the market. The franchise model generates
significantly less profit, which will provide us with an advantage, as we will be able to beat them on
price. Their primary means of marketing are coupons distributed in the weekly locals paper and
reliance on their brand name recognition, which is bolstered by national-level marketing
campaigns.
We believe there is customer demand for hand-made, artisanal ice cream as that is a prominent
trend as consumers shy away from mass manufactured food products.
Indirect competitors include grocery stores, convenient stores, and casual-style restaurants.
However, there is no direct competitor making hand-made ice cream in interesting and exotic
flavors.

ACME ICE CREAM LLC 9
All products will be make-to-stock: each day’s supply will be modified based on forecasted demand.
Over time the company will be able to forecast with precision the amount quantity to produce on a
daily basis.
Technology
While the ice cream produced is hand-made, the company will utilize several technologies to
improve operational efficiency.
The company will utilize proprietary customer relationship management software to track each
customer that purchases from the store, which will enable the company to re-market to those
customers and encourage word of mouth marketing.
CONFIDENTIAL - This document is strictly confidential and the information and ideas shared within the business plan are not to

ACME ICE CREAM LLC 10
The company will utilize an ordering system that will allow customers to place orders via tablet
devices at each table. Touch screens are an easy way of intuitively browsing the menu selection and
ordering. This will increase the order efficiency as well as have a novelty factor to increase
customer satisfaction. Customers will still have the option of ordering at the counter.
Intellectual Property
The company has filed for a patent related to its demand analysis software, which John Doe
developed and applied for prior to founding the company.
Derivative products
There are a variety of derivate products the company will pursue, including:
Sundaes
Floats
Cones
Cups
Various toppings

Customers
Market Overview
The total market for Acme Ice Cream LLC includes
all consumers in the Wilmington, DE area that
enjoy premium ice cream at least once a month.
The addressable market that the company is going
to target are consumers that prefer organic and
locally grown products and are willing to pay a
premium to support brands that promote these
values.
Market Needs
The company's product line provides an ice cream experience not found in any other store in
Wilmington - local and organic, hand-made and seasonal premium ice cream. While ice cream shops
like this exist in larger cities such as Philadelphia, New York and Washington DC, they are sorely
missing in Wilmington. The collision of organic and premium is two hot trends that the company
will capitalize on.

ACME ICE CREAM LLC 12
Market Trends
The trend to go organic and avoid “big-agriculture” is a national phenomenon as seen with the
meteoric success of national chains such a Chipotles, which emphasizes the quality of their
ingredients. Recent studies have shown that the fastest growing segment in the casual restaurant
industry is companies that emphasize healthy food options.
At the local level, the downtown Wilmington, DE area has seen significant gentrification as the
number of young professionals and families that have moved in have grown exponentially over the
past 10 years. This demographic, defined as Urban Achievers (U2 31) on the PRIZM segmentation
system, have large disposable incomes ($55,000 and above), are well educated (70% with
Bachelors Degree or higher), and are interested in maintaining healthy lifestyles (more likely to
drive a Prius then a Hummer).
At the customer and product level, consumers of premium ice cream are not price sensitive and
have been proven to readily accept the higher price point associated with premium ice cream. We
do not expect this trend to end.
Market Growth
CONFIDENTIAL - This document is strictly confidential and the information and ideas shared within the business plan are not to
be re-distributed, shared, or copied without written consent of the owner.
ACME ICE CREAM LLC 13
There are currently five ice cream shops in downtown Wilmington. Three years ago there were only
two. With each ice cream location generating approximately $2 million in annual sales, we can
forecast the market growth over the past years to be 300%.
Furthermore, using data collected from Ben & Jerry’s franchise prospectus, we can also see same
store sales for the Wilmington area growing over the past five years.
Using data from the Department of Labor, there has also been a net increase in the number of jobs
in the area. This is also encouraging and provides further validation that the market for premium
ice cream is growing.
Industry Analysis
The ice cream industry is a $10 Billion industry in the United States.
NAICS classification: 7334455: Ice cream, soft drink and soda fountain stands.
Availability of substitutes
While there is other ice cream shops around Wilmington, none currently offer the unique product
features we are planning on offering. We hope that this unique selling proposition will be a strong
enough incentive for us to retain customer loyalty.
Competitive rivalry
We anticipate that competitors will eventually mimic our product offering and branding, which will
increase competition. In addition, there is a limit to the growth in the overall market as
Wilmington’s gentrification is slowing down. However, we hope that by establishing ourselves as
the original and first organic, hand-made ice cream shop, that we will carve out defensive market
share.

Key Customers
Acme Ice Cream has three customer segments to which they will target their products.
Families: One key customer segment is families, in particular young parents who want to bring
their children to the store. For this segment, the average order value will not only be higher, but the
frequency in which they will return will also be higher. By promoting an organic alternative, the
company hopes to secure loyal parents and their children.
Teenagers: Historically teenagers comprise a large customer segment for ice cream shops.
Conveniently located in a downtown location with a high school within a 10-minute walk, Acme Ice
Cream will be in a prime spot for teenagers who want to grab a snack or to hang out after school.
Working professionals: The high density of companies in downtown Wilmington area allows
Acme Ice Cream to be easily accessible to working professionals who are looking for a treat on their
lunch break or after work. Acme Ice Cream will also be open to holding company gathering or
events.

ACME ICE CREAM LLC 15
Positioning
Acme Ice Cream will offer a differentiated product offering, promoting itself as the first and only
organic, hand-made ice cream shop. By producing out of the ordinary ice cream flavors such as
Madagascar chocolate, we aim to target the growing population of savvy consumers that have
moved into the downtown Wilmington, DE area.
As a purveyor of premium ice cream, we do not expect a higher price point to be an issue.
Furthermore, we will bolster the company’s brand as a lifestyle choice – helping consumers to
identify with our positioning as an organic, healthy, modern and sophisticated offering.
Pricing
Acme Ice Cream LLC has determined that its target consumer is only moderately price sensitive and
therefore, would be willing to pay a premium for quality. Therefore, the company's pricing strategy
is to offer a premium product at a premium price-point.
Compared to other rival stores in Wilmington, the company's price for a scoop of ice cream will be
competitive. If looking at comparable pricing from a unit price perspective, however, the company
will be approximately 10% higher. In other words, the company's scoop of ice cream will be smaller
than its competitors but come in at the same price point. This is to help recoup the higher costs
associated with higher raw ingredient costs.

ACME ICE CREAM LLC 16
Promotion
Internet marketing
The objective is to obtain enough new customers to generate positive word of mouth through social
media, with emphasis on the company’s Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Youtube and Tumbler
profiles. The company believes that social media will be critical to the success of its customer
acquisition strategy, as each incremental gain in social media will increase overall profitability.
Development of a company website will compliment the overall Internet marketing strategy.
The company will also utilize paid Internet marketing channels, including Google Adwords,
Groupon and LivingSocial. As these campaigns can be very expensive, the company will take a
cautious approach towards these campaigns.
Lastly, the company will place heavy emphasis on mobile marketing through the use of QR codes to
administer coupons, social media check-ins to claim discounts, and free wifi to encourage more
mobile device usage.
Traditional media
The company will initiate several local marketing campaigns to get the word out, including one big
launch campaign on local radio station 99.5 FM, where we will purchase several slots throughout
launch week offering buy 1 scoop get 1 scoop free campaign. Each month we will also launch
different campaigns, such as Kids under 12 get a free scoop day.
Print advertising such as flyers will also be used to be distributed to the local school and businesses
in the area to promote the store's grand opening and special events.
In addition, the company will entice walk-in business through the strategic placement of an Ice
Cream Mascot shaped as a huge ice cream cone. This will entice children as well as tourists who
would like to get their picture taken with the lively and comical mascot.

ACME ICE CREAM LLC 17
Distribution
The current focus is on delivering an exceptionally well in-store experience for the consumer,
which serves as the only distribution point. Future expansion includes selective distribution
through restaurants in the area in order to maintain high quality, as all products are hand-made. In
addition, the company has explored distributing its product through its suppliers, with Hudson
Valley Farms providing a verbal agreement to run a test campaign. By maintaining limited
quantities available for distribution, we can ensure the brand retains its exclusivity and quality.
CONFIDENTIAL - This document is strictly confidential and the information and ideas shared within the business plan are not to

ACME ICE CREAM LLC 18
Securing, furnishing and preparing the company’s first retail location is the first milestone for the
company. We anticipate accomplishing this milestone within the first month of operation.
SWOT Analysis

ACME ICE CREAM LLC 19
Competitive Edge
The company plans to compete on several vectors:
Differentiation:
We will be the only player in town providing stand-out flavors and organic ingredients. We will also
be the only store with touch screen menus and ordering system. More than just an ice cream shop,
Acme Ice Cream will represent a life style choice that resonates with the new urbanites inhabiting
Wilmington.
Innovation:
By using a platform strategy, we will quickly produce derivative products based off the most
popular flavors. This will allow us to capitalize on new flavor trends before our competitors and
monetize more effectively.
Operational efficiency:
By utilizing patent-pending technology we will be able to optimize our supply chain, achieving
parity with the national and regional players while maintaining the advantages of a small and
nimble operation.

Farms and Picante and Sons. The founder and CEO, John Doe, has worked with these suppliers for
